# Một đời sống mới tốt đẹp hơn cho dân chúng tỉnh Bình Long (A New and Better Life for the People of Binh Long Province)

A photo sheet titled 'A new and better life for the people of Binh Long province' reports that a joint social-medical committee of local authorities, U.S. civilian officials and U.S. aid agencies visited new hamlets to hand out food, clothing and medicine. Photographs show a jet-injector vaccination, blood testing, dental treatment and a supplies distribution, with captions giving 'more than 4000' cholera inoculations in seven days. The sheet shows only the assistance side of the programme and is silent on why the hamlets were new.

A NEW AND BETTER LIFE FOR THE PEOPLE OF BINH LONG PROVINCE

The Binh Long Provincial Joint Social-Medical Committee has been working to help thousands of Vietnamese and highland compatriots settled in the new-life hamlets. The social-medical teams, made up of local authorities, American civil-affairs officials and the American aid agency, have visited the hamlets and distributed food, clothing and medicine to the people. They have also instructed the local people in methods of hygiene.

During a 7-day visit to Chon Thanh district, the Joint Civil-Affairs Medical Committee gave cholera inoculations to more than 4000 compatriots.

The H.H.Y.T.D.S.V. [Joint Medical Civil-Affairs] Committee has had many compatriots' blood tested. This blood testing helps doctors find a way to prevent a dangerous disease: jungle malaria.

An American medical team is treating compatriots' teeth.

Social agencies and officials of the American aid agency in Binh Long continually help the people in supplying materials and guidance.
